  2. UG‐Actuator • UG‐Actuators are made by Woodward, Inc. • Woodward, Inc is an U.S. independent manufacturer, designer, and service provider of control solution for the aerospace and energy. • Woodward, Inc was founded 1870, its headquarter is at Fort Collins, Colorado • The energy-related systems and components are designed to enhance the performance of industrial gas and steam turbines, engines, compressors, wind turbines, etc. • The aerospace systems and components are designed to optimize the performance of fixed wing and rotorcraft platforms in commercial, business and military aircraft, ground vehicles and other equipment.

  3. Different types of UG‐Actuator UG‐Actuator Standard The UG actuator produces 20 J (15 ft-lb) of work over 42 degrees of rotary output. UG 40‐Actuator The UG40 actuator produces 85 J (63 ft-lb) of work over 38 degrees of rotary output.

  4. UG‐Actuator Application • The UG-Actuator can be used with diesel, gasoline, or natural gas engines, and with steam and industrial gas turbines. The UG-Actuator has a self-contained oil sump, so a separate oil supply is not required. • The UG-Actuator is a proportional electro-hydraulic actuator which can be used with electronic controls which provide a 20 to 160 mA position signal. The actuator is designed for use with Woodward 2301, 400, 43027, 500-series, and 700-series controls.

  5. UG‐Actuator Application Cont’ • The actuator operates with a low speed pump for drive speeds from 375 to 1100 rpm, and with a high speed pump for 600 to 1500 rpm. An optional cooler is available for applications with a higher drive speed or high ambient temperature. • The UG-Actuator is ideal for installations involving unattended starts.

  6. Description • The UG-Actuator takes a given electrical input signal and converts it to a proportional hydraulic output-shaft position to control engine fuel flow. • The standard UG-Actuator produces approximately 20J (15 ft-lb) of work over 42 degrees of rotary output. • The actuator’s electric-to-hydraulic transducer uses a Woodward-built torque motor • which converts the 20–160 mA control signal to a given output position.

  7. UG40 Actuator The UG-40 Actuator produces 85 N.m (63 lb-ft) of work over 38 degrees of rotary output. Stalled torque is 129 N.m (95 lb-ft). The UG40 Actuator has its own 7.0-liter (7.4-quart) oil sump and does not need a separate oil supply.

  8. Specifications

  9. Specification and work Drive/Hydraulic Specifications Drive Speed and Rotation High Speed Pump: 600–1500 rpm Low Speed Pump: 375–1100 rpm Drive operates in one direction only. Drive Power Requirement 375 W (0.5 hp) max. Hydraulic Supply Self-contained sump, 1.4 L (1.5 qt) capacity See Woodward Manual 25071, Oils for Hydraulic Controls, for specific recommendations. In most cases, the same type and weight of oils used in the engine can be used in the actuator. Maximum Work Capacity (based on the full 42 degree travel of the output shaft) Standard UG-ACTUATOR 19.4 J (14.3 ft-lb) in the increase direction; 23.3 J (17.2 ft-lb) in the decrease direction 20 ft-lb UG-ACTUATOR 27.2 J (20 ft-lb) in both directions Remote UG-ACTUATOR 27.2 J (20 ft-lb) when supplied with 2760 kPa (400 psi); pressurized oil must be supplied to the actuator Rated Work Capacity 2/3 of maximum work capacity

  10. Maintenance • Replace the actuator oil if it is contaminated • Change it if it is suspected of contributing to instability. • Drain the oil while it is still hot. • Oil that has been carefully selected to match the operating conditions. • Regularly scheduled oil changes will extend the life of the actuator and improve actuator operation. • More frequent changes are recommended.

  11. Conclusion • Proportional electro hydraulic actuator simplifies transfer from mechanical governing • Economical installation using UG-8 case and drive • Works with all Woodward 20—16- mA output electronic control system • The actuator converts a given electrical signal to an output shaft position through the action of a torque motor and follower-type pilot valve. The rotary output actuator has 42 degrees of terminal (output) shaft travel. Recommended travel from the no-load to the full-load position is 2/3 of full actuator travel.
